Features: The authors of the family precepts selected in this book are all relatively representative figures, ranging from the Duke of Zhou in the pre-Qin period to Wei Yuan in the modern era. They include both politicians and thinkers, as well as writers and artists. The formats include letters, diaries, essays, and poems. Every sentence reflects the authors' heartfelt words, embodying their earnest hopes and boundless affection for the younger generation. This is a valuable spiritual treasure that we should make good use of to better educate the next generation. Since classical Chinese and modern Chinese have a significant gap, especially when young readers encounter different obstacles while reading, we have provided brief interpretations for each precept and simple explanations about the authors and the writing context.
